Convinced there it will be cut at some point beyond North Shields (if not Shields) and definitely route changes between Wallsend and the town, if the 11 is going along Shields Road
Yep I would say the 1s that currently terminate at Gateshead will be cut back to terminate at Wallsend. Then again it said route and timetable would be changing so not sure...? 1 gets busy between North Shields and Wallsend so I don't think a frequency of every 15 minutes would work. That would then free up a couple of omnicities, but not sure where they could go?
The 1 and 11 could still combine to provide a bus every 15 minutes between Wallsend and Gateshead, and an improved 7/8 minute frequency between Newcastle and Wallsend with the 1/11/Q3. The Q3 makes up for the 11 not serving Quayside anyway
